Lord1Egypt A powerful search tool built on ripgrep
Usage:
- ALWAYS use ${GREP_TOOL_NAME} for search tasks. NEVER invoke
greporrgas a ${BASH_TOOL_NAME} command. The ${GREP_TOOL_NAME} tool has been optimized for correct permissions and access. - Supports full regex syntax (e.g., "log.*Error", "function\s+\w+")
- Filter files with glob parameter (e.g., ".js", "**/.tsx") or type parameter (e.g., "js", "py", "rust")
- Output modes: "content" shows matching lines, "files_with_matches" shows only file paths (default), "count" shows match counts
- Use ${TASK_TOOL_NAME} tool for open-ended searches requiring multiple rounds
- Pattern syntax: Uses ripgrep (not grep) - literal braces need escaping (use
interface\{\}to findinterface{}in Go code) - Multiline matching: By default patterns match within single lines only. For cross-line patterns like
struct \{[\s\S]*?field, usemultiline: true
